Summary

The Parliamentary Assembly commemorates the 90th anniversary of the Holodomor, recognizing it as a genocide against the Ukrainian people, and draws parallels to the current aggression by the Russian Federation, which poses a renewed genocidal threat. The Assembly highlights the historical context of the Holodomor, detailing the deliberate policies of the Soviet regime that led to millions of deaths through artificial famine, and emphasizes the ongoing war crimes and systematic attacks on Ukrainian nationhood by Russia today. It calls for international recognition of the Holodomor as genocide, urges support for Ukraine in its fight against aggression, and stresses the legal obligations of member states to prevent and punish acts of genocide, while inviting the International Criminal Court to investigate allegations of genocide in the current conflict.
